Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 716

The door of the ward was slammed open, and it attracted both Ariah and Felipe's attention.

Upon seeing the person standing in front of the door, they were stunned.

It was Jimmy.

After suddenly disappearing for a month, he finally came back.

However, he had a weird expression on his face.

Standing by the ward door, he gloomily stared at Ariah and Felipe, fists tightly clenched.

Ariah was dumbfounded before a wave of shock washed over her. She looked at Jimmy, who was shabbily dressed, in disbelief.

Moments later, Felipe snapped back to his senses as well. Widening his eyes, he asked, "Are you... Jimmy?"

This man, who looked shabby and unshaven with bloodshot eyes and slightly sunken cheeks... was Jimmy Hudson?

He looked like a caveman!

Looking at him, Felipe could not help laughing. "Jimmy, what on earth happened to you? How did you end up like this?"

Wearing a dark expression, Jimmy stood still by the door. While staring at Ariah on the hospital bed, he spoke to Felipe. "You. Come here."

"What's the matter?" Confused, Felipe scuttled towards him.

The next second, Jimmy lifted his foot and kicked Felipe out of the room, leading Felipe to let out a cry of pain. He then shot Felipe a murderous gaze before slamming the door shut. Holding onto his butt, Felipe was utterly bewildered.

What had he done to offend Jimmy?

Why was Jimmy beating him up as soon as he came back?

After closing the door, Jimmy took a few deep breaths to calm himself down before asking Ariah, who was sitting on the bed, "Don't you have anything to say to me?" Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

From the moment he entered the room, he noticed Ariah looking at him with an indifferent gaze. It was as if she was looking at a stranger.

Turning her head away, Ariah said faintly, "You're back."

Then, she said nothing further.

Instantly, Jimmy flew into a rage. "Ariah Myers! What's with your attitude?"

Frowning, Ariah retorted, "What do you mean by

my attitude? What's wrong with my attitude?"

Tve been away for more than a month. Now that I'm back, that's the reaction you're giving me?"

Couldn't she at least act like she was excited? He rushed all the way back to see her, but her reaction dampened his spirits.

Giving him a few glances, Ariah continued to speak coldly, "Oh, have you been away for more than a month? I didn't keep track of the time. I've been living quite well without you anyways."

Jimmy was stupefied. A thought flashed across his mind, and instantly, anger rose in him.

Striding over to Ariah, he trapped her in his arms, staring at her delicate face with his dark eyes as he said word by word, "What's going on between you and Felipe?"

Ariah was taken aback.

Felipe? What could happen between her and Felipe?

What was wrong with him?

"Go away. Don't come near me!"

Frowning, Ariah chased him away. When even was the last time he took a shower? He stunk so much that it felt like he just crawled out of a sewer.

Looking at the disgusted look on her face, Jimmy was even more infuriated.

He grabbed her cheeks and asked coldly, "Answer my question. Why did Felipe come out of your neighborhood carrying you in his arms?"

Lowering his gaze, he noticed that she was still in her pajamas without a bra on. Instantly, He went hysterical!

The first thing that he wanted to do after returning was to visit Ariah, but as soon as he arrived at her neighborhood, he saw Felipe carrying Ariah out of the house before getting into a taxi. So, he followed them all the way to the hospital and realized that they were heading to the gynecology department. At that moment, he was so angry that he wanted to give Felipe a good beating.

Now that he saw Ariah in her pajamas without any underwear, it only added fuel to the fire.

Realization dawn on Ariah, and immediately, she understood why he was so angry.

He must have thought that she and Felipe was dating!

Ariah was so exasperated that her entire body started trembling. Glaring at him, she blurted out, "Yes, I am dating him right now! In the past month, Felipe took care of me, accompanied me during Thanksgiving, went shopping with me, talked to me, watched movies, ate with me, and also did everything else with me!"

A loud bang rang out in the room.

Jimmy slammed his fist on the bed, causing the bed to sway a little.

At once, the atmosphere in the ward turned cold.

Jimmy's expression was terrifying. It seemed as though he might strangle Ariah to death if she said one more word.

Normally, she would be scared whenever Jimmy was raging. However, God knew where she got the courage to stare at him confidently this time!

Jimmy was boiling with anger. Of course, he could not bear to hit her, so he decided to vent his anger on another person.

Felipe!

Right away, he strode out of the room.

Knowing what he was going to do, Ariah jumped off the bed and shouted, "Jimmy, don't you dare!"

Glaring at her fiercely, Jimmy retorted, "Dare me!"

Knowing that she could not dissuade him, Ariah shouted shouting, "Felipe, run!"

Felipe already knew that something was going on in the ward. He had been hesitating over whether he should go in and check up on them. Just as he was about to push open the door, Ariah's panicked voice was heard coming from the ward. Intuitively, he turned around and ran away.

Like a gust of wind, he was out of sight.

By the time Jimmy went out, Felipe had already disappeared. Instantly, Jimmy's face turned a shade darker.

Not knowing that escaped, Ariah chased hurry, worried that he irrational in a fit of anger.

Felipe had already after Jimmy in a might do something

"What are you doing out here?!"

Looking at Ariah, who was so worried that she ran out of the ward barefooted, Jimmy lost his marbles at once. All he wanted was to drag her back into the ward.

People gathered around in front of the ward, pointing fingers at them.

As soon as Jimmy walked up to Ariah, she shook his hand away in disgust and said, "Don't touch me. Go away. Leave me alone!"

Finally, his patience wore thin. Clenching his fist, he scoffed in disbelief before turning around to leave with bloodshot eyes.

Ariah stood frozen to the ground as a deep feeling of sadness washed over her.

Suddenly, Jimmy stopped in his tracks.

Seconds later, he walked back to Ariah angrily and covered Ariah with his coat that smelled of dirt.

Shooting a sharp look at the crowd, he bellowed, "Go back to your rooms right away. What are you guys staring at?!"

Shocked, the crowd dispersed.

Jimmy looked coldly at Ariah, who had her head down, before snorting and leaving.

Suddenly, he felt his hand turned wet.

Frozen, he lifted Ariah's chin. As expected, her eyes turned red, and she was silently shedding tears.

"Why are you crying?!" Jimmy was raging yet frustrated at the same time. "Don't cry!"

He was the one who should be angry, but why was she crying?

Without saying anything, Ariah shook off his hand and even tried to remove his coat on her.

"Don't you dare!"

Wrapping her back into his coat, he threatened her. Left with no choice, he gritted his teeth and brought her back home.
